dust busted, (no Corvair) was: <VV> converting a 2nd gen corvair to 3.8 buick engine

[Mark Corbin]

It may be just me, but having owned a '95 TransSport since new, the term
"dustbuster" really grates against me. If there was anything on the road
that looked like a "dustbuster" it was the first gen F**D Aerostar minivan.
A guy around here has a tan one, and the lines and front grille make it
look for all the world like a giant dustbuster. Just look at its lines.
Seriously. Not so any of the "All Plastic Vans" from GM. The lines aren't
EVEN close.

Now maybe it has an "anteater" look to it, as someone once said. And I
could live with that term.

But the A.P.V. resembling a dustbuster?? NO WAY, JOSE! You seriously need
glasses, man.
